[PATCH v9 25/38] swiotlb: Add warnings for use of bounce buffers with SME

Fri Jul 7 06:42:49 PDT 2017


Add warnings to let the user know when bounce buffers are being used for
DMA when SME is active.  Since the bounce buffers are not in encrypted
memory, these notifications are to allow the user to determine some
appropriate action - if necessary.  Actions can range from utilizing an
IOMMU, replacing the device with another device that can support 64-bit
DMA, ignoring the message if the device isn't used much, etc.
